Jeff Sessions has responded to President Donald Trump’s endorsement of his former attorney general’s Republican opponent in a runoff for the party’s U.S. Senate nomination in Alabama, saying he intends to bring his case “directly to the people.”
Sessions and Tommy Tuberville, a former college football coach, advanced to a Republican primary runoff after Tuberville received 33.4 percent of the vote to Sessions’s 31.6 percent on March 3, according to Ballotpedia. On March 11, Sessions responded on Twitter to the president’s endorsement of Tuberville, arguing that he supports the same values as Trump does.
